5756 Father words.... "Seek ye first the kingdom of God...."

August 29, 1953: Book 62

Trust in Me and do not worry, for I will take all your worries upon Myself if you ask Me for them. But you also do what you can do for Me.... gladly and willingly do the work for Me which I assign to you because it has to be carried out by people. My kingdom is not of this world and yet you humans of this world must strive to attain it, and one shall help the other if he cannot find his way into My kingdom. Thus you humans on earth, if you want to be of service to Me, have to guide your fellow human beings because you already know the path but they first have to look for it and need your help to do so. This is work which requires your love for Me and for your fellow human beings, and I want to return this love by helping you if you are in need. I have assured you of remedying your adversity with the words: Seek first the kingdom of God.... everything else will be added to you.... which also means as much as: Work for Me and My kingdom, and then I will also consider you as My servants like a good householder.... You will be able to go through earthly life carefree and light-hearted as soon as you only concern yourselves with the spiritual work of drawing your fellow human beings' attention to the path which leads into My kingdom.... Not for one hour would you need to find yourselves in earthly adversity if only you would trustingly turn to Me to take it over.... Yet you often become of little faith and fickle, often the earthly world pushes itself between you and Me and you don't find the strength to break through the wall which separates us; your faith is weak and therefore your worries don't leave you, and then you also forget My words which promise you help.... but which you have to believe so that the promises will come true.

(8/29/1953) Everything will be bearable for you as long as you maintain the connection with Me, as long as you live in faith in Me and My love and entrust yourselves to Me out of this faith.... Thus, as long as you are in the right relationship with your father as a child you will be assured of His help in every adversity. There will still be much suffering on earth where you will have to prove this faith in Me.... you will still often be in distress because My adversary constantly tempts you, because he wants to bring you down and his effort is to shake your faith, to make you fickle so that he can always influence you more and more.... Don't let the tempter triumph over you, in every adversity of body and soul turn to the father in heaven, Who only waits for your call to be able to help you; believe Me that I always want to help and that every right prayer will be answered, for one promise also reads: "Ask and it shall be given you, knock and it shall be opened to you...." You may confidently regard every one of My words as having been spoken to you, and you may trust every one of My words that I will also fulfil them.... And therefore there should be no earthly adversity for you, because if you hand it over to Me you will be free of it. Only your faith in it must be strong and unshakeable.... A loving father does not let His child ask in vain, He helps because He loves His child.... Keep reminding yourselves that you are My children after all and that I want to win your love and trust and therefore will not act unkindly towards you. But often I have to nudge you softly so that you don't forget your father.... But this, too, is love, because only I can offer you the highest happiness, because you cannot find beatitude elsewhere and therefore I repeatedly try to avert your eyes from the world.... and, if danger threatens, also have to touch you roughly, but always immediately ready to help if you turn to Me again.... It is a wooing for your love, but not a lack of love on My part.... For My adversary also seeks to win you over completely and gives you earthly goods if you turn to him. He tempts you but I seek you and follow you, for I want to lift you up while he wants to overthrow you. Trust and believe that My love applies to you and that you may experience My love at any time, that I am always ready to help if you call upon Me....

Amen
